COLORADO Causes 10 Of 13 PAGE THREE Mayor Points To Industry's Safety Gains Ten out of 13 automobile fatalities occurring in Weld county so far this year were caused by liquor, the Greo ley Junior Chamber of Commerce was told here Monday night by C. Ids tier, Colorado courtesy patrolman. The statement was substantiated by Cor oner T.

C. Wllmoth. "The courtesy patrol doesn't want to have to arrest persons for drunken driving," Kistler continued. "When you are near a man who is under the Influence of liquor, there are two courses to take. You should eithei drive the car yourself or take the car keys so the other man can't," Kistler advised.

The courtesy patrolman urged continuance of the campaign of education for careful driving. Mayor B. M. Colpitts of Greeley discussed safety from another angle. He pointed to two large corporations with Greeley connections which stress safety at all times.

They are the Union Pacific Railroad and the Great Western Sugar company. Mr. Colpitts has been with the Great Western for 26 years. During that time the permanent organization has been BO constantly drilled in safety measures that such have become second nature to full time employes, he said. He pointed out that during his term with the company, accidents have been so reduced that they are now only 20 per cent as numerous as they were.

The mayor said that he may soon call a conference of all city employes and officials to discuss safety. The city always welcomes suggestions, ho declared. Junior Chamber will meet at the George Ernst Glen Haven cafe next Monday evening with ladies invited. Plans are now being, discussed for a Junior Chamber golf tourney to be held some Sunday afternoon at the Greeley Country club. Definite date was not set.

What It Means: Labor Legislation--Railroad Model This week's "What It Means" story helps to clarify the present labor situation by explaining how labor problems have been tackled in 1 the railroad business. By A M. BEATTY AP Feature Service Writer at this picture: A strike affecting fewer than 100,100 steel workers--a mere fraction of the industry--spills blood, alarms the niblic and baffles officialdom in Wash- ngton and seven state capitals. Now turn to this one: More than rnh ion railway workers are threatening to walk out an eventuality a would actually paralyze the nation and inflict untold economic damage; yet officialdom a the public alike are so tranquil, you'd a 1 know a strike vote is under way.

Why the calm on the railway front, while everybody is keyed up to fever James W. Carmalt pitch on the steel front? Let suave, patient James W. Carmalt tell you. He's the man who holds the reins on the law that settles differences between railways and their employes. Technically, lie is chairman of the national mediation board.

We ask the questions, and Mr. Carmalt answers. Question--Mr. Carmalt, why has the national railway labor act successfully averted major strikes? Answer--Because the railroads and their employes have spent 60 years working out a code for peaceful settlement of differences. The national railway labor law of 1926 and, its amendments merely express that code in writing.

In fact: the law was worked out by agreement between the management and the men. Q--What is the most Important requirement of the law? A--Genuine collective bargaining with the affairs of management and men completely divorced. Even the check-off is prohibited. (The check-off is the system under which employers deduct union dues from employes' pay and turn the money over to the unions.) Q--What is the difference In principle between the railway labor act and the new Wagner labor act, which is supposed to establish collective bargaining in all other interstate industries A--No difference in principle- The Wagner act merely is young, perhaps incomplete. It is going thru the ordeal of fire and blood that railway legislation withstood years ago.

Q--Does the railway labor act do more for the railways than the Wagner act does for other interstate industries? A--Yes, far more. The railway law sets up complete machinery whereby agreements are reached in mediation. And, to take care of the grievances of labor and management under agreements already reached, it also set up Electric Washers REPAIRED Martin Electric Shop 805 Coronado Court 716 12th St. Long Distance Moving, Packing and Shipping The Union Delivery Co.

Ask yoiir Union Pactfa Agent about low faret to Western vacation regions. adjustment boards--a system industrial "courts" If you pleaso. How Railways Mediate Q--Can you explain this machinery in simple terms? A--In the first place you have the parties to reach an agreement on rates of pay, hours, and working conditions.

Once those agreements are reached national mediation board to assist the by the "system of courts" I told you they are Interpreted and adjudicated about. By this provesn practically all grievances of Individuals disagreements over the meaning of contracts are eliminated, because the adjustment board decides thorn, and the or- durs of these boards are enforceable in the regular courts. As I have indl cated, in disputes arising over the making of agreements in the first place, the parties are required to ente Into bona fide negotiations with th assistance of the mediation board This board has no power to rendei decision. It merely assists. If we neu trals fall to get the parties together the president of the United States may appoint a special board to ferre out all the facts and broadcast them to the public, thus bringing into play the pressure on both sides of public opinion.

Meanwhile, strikes are pro If the president's board should fall as a last resort? A--The employes can strike or management may lock them out If they dare. Q--Why don't they usually A--Because public opinion can make or break a strike. Q--Does the railway labor act establish a closed shop? A--Decidedly not; on the contrary, the act guarantees the open shop, thus establishing in industry the same principle that rules our political life--democratic majority rule. Q--Then why are the railway brotherhoods so powerful? A--Because they perform competent service for their members in the role of negotiators of labor contracts. If they should fall in this service, the way Is open to rival and abler organizations.

Q--What does railway management generally think of organized labor? A--I can't spealc for management, but I can suggest that experience has taught railway management that bona fide collective bargaining is the only proven road to permanent industrial peace. Responsible i Essential Q--Then why hasn't collective 'bargaining under the Wagner act succeeded In curbing the steel strike? A--For one thing, the Wagner act has no history behind It, and for another, it has had no time to develop strong; responsible labor organizations. Such groups take years to build. why hasn't industrial management universally encouraged the organization of Its workers and overlooked the shortcomings newly set up labor organizations? A--Because management generally may not have learned the bitter lesson that you can't avoid constant or recurring economic warfare in a democratic nation unless you encourage your work- This Is Lotus, All Puffed Up by Her Picture in "Life" This la Lotus, tho four ton hippopotamus who wl'N visit Greeley with the Al G.

Q--How are employes to build responsible unions? A--By first obtaining a sense of responsibility thru negotiated labor contracts, fair to employe and employer aiike. Contracts are the workers' property rights in their Jobs. Contracts promote in workers a sense of responsibility and property values.
